A Warrington-headquartered app developer has raised more than £750,000 as part of a series A investment.

Tootoot is an anti-bullying platform for schools, colleges and universities, and is being developed for sports organisations and the workplace in a bid to help stamp out harassment.

Launched in September 2015, the app was conceived by chief executive and co-founder Michael Brennan, following his experience of bullying and cyber-bullying while at school. Alongside Kieran Innes, he created Tootoot to help pupils anonymously report any such concerns.
